i think around age 5 or so, i remember one night i was awake in my bed and saw a skeleton standing there, at the foot of my bed. i imediatly thought he would steal my feet. this obviously is a dream. though i feel very odd when i think about it. now im 13 and for some odd reason i need to wear socks to bed or i cant sleep.... hmm?
